Asker: Hi Lamis, long time :) I am familiar with "spark plus" and it was the first thing that came to my mind. However, I was wondering it could be something bigger or more significant, because it is listed as one of the deliverables in a contract, in return for which 25% of the contract value shall be paid. So, I am not sure if they'd pay that much just to receive the spark plugs, you know, heheheh

أكد محامي المتهمين في حادث قطار البدرشين، أنه سيقدم للمحكمة تقريرا من قطاع المسافات القصيرة بهيئة السكة الحديد، يثبت أن "البواجي" نوعية "uci" التي ينتمي إليها القطار المنكوب، لا تصلح إلا لقطع المسافات القصيرة التي لا تتجاوز 70 كيلو مترا، وذلك نظرا لتقادم نوعية تلك العربات ومرور أكثر من 36 سنة على بداية دخولها الخدمة وتهالك قرابة 85% منها.

Bogies (Trucks)

A pair of train wheels is rigidly fixed to an axle to form a wheelset. Normally, two wheelsets are mounted in a bogie, or truck as it is called in US English. Most bogies have rigid frames as shown below (Fig 3).

شهد مزلقان سكة حديد الثقافة دائرة قسم ثان سوهاج خروج البوجي الأمامي "عجل" مساء أمس لقطار إسباني كان في اتجاهه إلى محطة سوهاج قادمًا من القاهرة وتم إنقاذ جميع الركاب.

تبين من خلال الفحص خروج البوجى الامامى لجرار القطار رقم 868 اسبانى "القاهرة – سوهاج" من على شريط السكة الحديد بمزلقان الثقافة دائرة قسم ثان سوهاج على بعد حوالى كيلو من محطة سكة حديد سوهاج.

انتقل الى مكان الواقعة شرطة النقل والمواصلات وادارة البحث الجنائى ومأمور وضباط القسم وقام المختصون بهيئة السكة الحديد برفع الجرار بواسطة ونش الهيئة واعادته على القضبان، كما تم نزول جميع ركاب القطار لقرب المكان من محطة الوصول النهائية.
